We are a specialty nursery growing herbaceous ornamental wildflowers, grasses, and select hybrids and cultivars. In creating our plant selection particular attention has been given to plants that are hardy, robust-growing, and low-maintenance while embodying a more natural and wild aesthetic. It is this very same selection of plants we ourselves use to practice the art of naturalistic planting design.
Meticulous plant selection is at the heart of who we are as nurserymen and designers, and we offer a hands-on approach to helping customers understand the plants in our nursery from both a biological and design perspective. Often an exchange will result in a personal consultation concerning the development of the customer's garden. This involves touring the display gardens of the nursery to help explain design ideas and to see many of the nursery plants in maturity.
Nature is in a state of constant and dynamic change from season to season. Our focus is on herbaceous perennial plants which reflect this change while remaining beautiful, keeping our gardens attractive from spring into winter, with the last remaining seed heads persisting into the following spring.

Services
Inventory We believe we carry one of the most unique selections of plants available in the state.
We attribute this to our passion, perspective, influences, and the fact we grow and seek much of our own, and select many of our own unique named cultivars.
We believe less is more, and the number of types of plants we grow reflects this, as we have a comparatively small inventory of just over 300 varieties.
This listing is the ultimate reference of all plants available for sale.
Our inventory will vary from year to year based on our success in over-wintering, propagation, and sales.

We believe we grow one of the most unique selections of plants available in the state.
We attribute this to our passion, perspective, influences, and the fact we grow and seek much of our own and select several of our own named cultivars.
Perhaps our plant selection may be as easily identified by what we don't grow, a portion of which are such popular plants most nurseries would consider it economically untenable not to carry.
It may be our loss but we rest assured these plants will be found elsewhere so the customer will not be let down.

Welcome to Campo di Fiori's adjoining web page highlighting our work growing neohybrid hazels, production of hazelnuts, and hazel nursery stock.
As a subject of its own, it is enough to warrant its own page providing information about this unique, valuable, and fascinating genus of plants.
The term neohybrid means our hazel plants are crosses of three different Corylus species (americana, cornuta, and avellana) which are open-pollinated and with each individual plant wholly unique and new to the genus.

For the Perennial Meadow, a wider range of plants with a long season of interest have been chosen so to provide interest within each season largely, through strongly contrasting forms.
There is a distinct progression as the seasons advance.
In spring and early summer, the predominance of flowering plants is of European origin and on average lower-growing.
Though many earlier flowering plants such as geraniums lack structure after flowering, the inflorescence of many of these earlier-flowering plants persists structurally into the next flush of growth, such as that of Camassia 'Alba'.

As a planting designer it is hard to resist compiling lists.
In fact, it is essential.
Every landscape presents to us a different natural environment and a different local aesthetic, and so involves the narrowing-down of a large selection of plant choices to those which best fit these regional criteria.
The result is a garden/landscape which is lower-maintenance and aesthetically fitting.
The compiling of some of these lists was an arduous task, one only the most practiced and observant gardener could achieve.
